Holly Rudel (Project 4, Zimmerman Lab, Yale) travelled to Tempe, AZ to visit fellow Project 4 trainees Emily Briese (Westerhoff Lab, ASU) and Srishti Gupta (Muhich Lab, ASU) to learn their techniques for surface complexation modelling and density theory calculations. While there, Holly gained insight into how her Project 4 collaborators set up their computational jobs and got to experience life in their labs. Emily and Holly were also excited to support Srishti on her doctoral defense, where they were inspired by the body of research Dr. Gupta has done over the past five years. Holly is excited to continue her research with her ASU collaborators, and the group is looking forward to publishing numerous papers as discussed on the trip.
